Living The Four-Way Test
w w w. E t h i c s I n i t i a t i v e . o r g
Presentations: To help promote ethics in your Rotary Club and District, arrangements can be made to provide on-site instructors for your events. Resources: We have a wide array of materials and re-sources; our manual includes modules with sections on ethical topics including:
• Respect • Fairness • Leadership and Character • Truth and Trustworthiness • Goodwill, Friendship and Caring • Responsibility and Self-discipline • Citizenship • And more…..
Who are we? The Ethics Initiative grew out of the Rotary Zones 25/26 Ethics Initiative pilot program. While the Ethics Initiative is not an official program of RI, we have been granted permis-sion by RI to implement the EI program within any Rotary Club or District choosing to participate. We are incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, legally known as “The Ethics Leadership Enterprise for Rotary Clubs and Districts.”
What are we? The Ethics Initiative is a multi-District and Zone strategy designed to advance ethics and integrity in Rotary Clubs and Districts in col-laboration with the Rotary’s Youth Services programs.

provide resources that promote

The Four-Way Test is a nonpartisan and nonsectarian ethical guide for Rotarians to use
for their personal and professional relationships. The test has been translated into more than 100 languages, and Rotarians recite it at club meetings: Of the things we think, say or do: 1. Is it the TRUTH? 2. Is it FAIR to all concerned? 3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? 4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
